A clever plan

Yu Shengliang, who had regained his sanity and was temporarily living in the Yanchang County government office, had no idea that he would be sold by three top officials in this way. Not only did he not expect this possibility, the old man had never even thought about it.

My mind is full of touching images of me "repaying the king's favor by dying in danger" and sacrificing my life for the country with my sword. Every time I am so moved by this self-brainwashing, I jump up and down like a chicken blood: first, I force the ox cart puller

I came to block the city gate with big rocks. As soon as I blocked it, I remembered that the Yanshui River was a big hidden danger. I turned around and went to the blacksmith to build three river barricades. I heard the blacksmith said that it would take a month to knock out one.

After counting with his fingers, Guan Shengyun found that even if he crawled over, three months would be enough to climb over. He finally gave up the idea and angrily counted several more swords and guns in person. He cursed a few times and turned around to go to the food store

He grabbed the grain book from the grain official's hand and counted the grain stored in it, then went back to the city wall to supervise the peasants transporting bricks and stones to the dilapidated wall, thinking of smashing the heads of the thieves who had climbed up the earthen wall until they were bloody.

In order to see the scene, he encouraged the coolies by spitting "Xiao Yi Da Yi", and while he was talking, suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind and he remembered a "good words of gold" that he had read, and he became anxious when he mentioned the hem of his official uniform.

Looking for Li Shaobing with great expectations...

Li Shaobing was furious on the beach of the Yellow River, stomping his feet and vowing to kill everyone's ancestors. After training for three to five days, more than 400 people still couldn't understand the password!

Li Shaobing never thought of teaching any complicated tactical skills to this ragtag group of people. Just sharpen your guns in battle and be able to cope with them. The movement is very simple, with only two steps: starting with the left foot in front, and the right foot in front.

Afterwards, he held a shield in his left hand to protect his body and held a knife in his right hand above his head. Hearing a "kill" sound, he pushed the shield forward with his left hand to block and at the same time took a step forward with his right foot and slashed with the knife. He shouted "kill" in unison, and then took a left step.

The feet resume their stance - such a simple action, but I haven't practiced it yet!

As for the root cause, talking about it makes Li Shaobing want to cry: the vast majority of people do not distinguish between left and right!

The first two or three days were spent training on forming up, advancing, and turning.

The war is about to begin. It sounds weird to train in formation without learning combat skills. In fact, this is the most basic requirement for field battle formations - this is also the origin of the infantry phalanx that is indispensable in military parades around the world today: being in formation

The soldiers in the middle can only see the situation not far away in front of them, while the commander on the base of the rear is condescendingly looking down at the battlefield. According to the enemy's actual situation, he directs the soldiers through flags and golden drums, and the latter then advances as a whole or changes the direction of attack.

At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that the line does not break, so as not to be penetrated by the enemy. This method of warfare was a common method of field warfare all over the world until the advent of modern long-range firearms. The side that can change the formation in a uniform manner will always be the king of the battlefield.

Of course, to achieve this requires long-term and arduous training, and to develop soldiers' conditioned response to orders - sometimes, obeying orders means facing death. Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is the key to all animals.

In the era before the sense of responsibility, honor and patriotism have been instilled and ingrained in people's minds, the only way to overcome this instinct is fear: those who disobey orders will face whips, military sticks, and clothing.

Punishments such as arrows, amputated limbs, and even being decapitated in public, after day after day of intensive training, you can develop conditioned reflexes and subconscious obedience. As the saying goes, "go into water, go into fire, go into fire," you will get a "daring" weapon.

"An invincible army that goes through fire and water.

On the first day, Li Shaobing and the other guards, who had no experience training new recruits, rushed to the shelves. They spent a whole day assigning positions to these guys one by one. When they all stood up, they looked neatly arranged.

As soon as the "Enter" command was issued, the square formation immediately became chaotic: some people stepped forward with their left legs, some people stepped with their right legs, some people didn't hear clearly and stood there stupidly without moving, some people didn't know to stop and kept moving forward... So Li Shaobing and the others were about to rush.

He walked into the crowd and asked one by one, "Which team do you, his, and your mother belong to?" Then they pulled them out one by one, pushed them back to their original positions, and then... messed up again, and started over and over again... until the sun

To the west, a guard came up with a clever plan: there were a lot of stones on the river beach. Each person placed one on the ground. After hearing the order, he took a step forward and stopped on the stone in front. Only then did the "instructors" leave.

Rescue from endless chaos.

The next day, another smart guard named Zhao Ergou figured out a way to distinguish left and right: he took off everyone's left shoes and told them that the bare foot was the left and the one wearing shoes was the right...

...This method has also greatly improved the training efficiency - well, the only flaw is that it caused a small fight at the end of the training - the tattered shoes in the smelly shoe pile can also be good or bad.

Points: There are both peerless products with only a hole in them, and there are also ugly ones with only a little bit connected to the sole. In order to grab the good shoes, of course there will be a fight. The prize is so attractive, so the fight is naturally fierce, and there are even a few

This guy can't participate in the next day's training...

Yu Shengliang doesn't care about the troubles Li Shaobing encounters during his training. As a civil servant, who cares about these minutiae? It's the right way to direct the country to strategize and then let go - I only give orders, who cares whether it is operable or not! Xing

Chong Chong grabbed the guard captain who was so anxious that he wanted to scratch the wall: "Shaobing, I have thought of a way to defeat the enemy!"

As soon as the words came out, Li Shaobing, who was on the verge of collapse, regained his senses on the spot. Before the old man could continue to talk about any clever tricks to defeat the enemy, he pulled Yu Shengliang's sleeve and almost knelt down: "Sir, you must not do this!

The battles between the two armies were fought with real swords and guns. The winner is always the one with more people and the best equipment! My lord, please don’t believe the clever tricks told by the storyteller. Those...are all nonsense that traps people without paying for their lives.

!”

Yu Shengliang changed his face and said: "You bastard! Fart! What do you know, you are a bitch! I have read many poems and books, and the sages' books are full of precious words and good words. How can you be lying to others!"

When these words were spoken, Li Shaobing was immediately speechless. Yes, the status of sage books is supreme. How could an illiterate warrior like a pig or dog dare to question it? I only heard Yu Shengliang say mysteriously and seriously: "

I suddenly remembered a saying, 'Since ancient times, hijacking camps has resulted in 90% theft'! If you don't understand, I will explain it to you..."

Hearing this, Li Shaobing didn't care about the public view. He grinned, firmly pulled Yu Shengliang's sleeves and refused to let go. He interrupted Yu Shengliang's words with a cry: "Sir, I eat food and serve as a soldier.

It’s been more than twenty years! Before I joined you, I fought in more than ten battles. I understand this sentence! It’s about stealing a camp and robbing a stronghold in the middle of the night. You can succeed in it nine times out of ten. But we can’t use this method.

Ah! Sir, don't worry, just listen to me! First, the stolen battalions were all enemy troops that had just been stationed and had not yet established a foothold. The terrain was completely unfamiliar. There were ditches and slopes around them.

The kind with a black eye. Secondly, the people sent to the night raid were all elite servants who knew each other well enough to understand each other's meaning without speaking, and they were also familiar with the terrain. As you know, I followed the adults and asked them to

Fortunately, we have meat to eat every now and then, and we can still see some things at night, but those death row inmates who eat grain cakes or even tree bark can't see anything at night like birds! Let alone peeping in the dark.

When you arrive at the thief's camp, don't fall into the ditch and die. Your ancestors are manifesting themselves, sir! Besides, the thief is not camping in the wild, but living in the city, protected by the city wall! You can't see anything in the middle of the night.

If you don’t see me, you still have to climb the wall? Sir, this is to die, not to kill a thief!"

Yu Shengliang, who was full of excitement, was poured a basin of ice water on his head. He was unwilling to give up. He became so embarrassed that he said angrily: "Shut up, you dog! What crime should I be punished for talking nonsense and disrupting the morale of the army?" On second thought, Li Shaobing and these

After all, Nian was loyal, and what he said did make some sense. He took a deep breath, calmed down, softened his tone, and whispered sincerely: "Shaobing, let me tell you the truth, although the thieves are overwhelmingly overwhelming.

, but the Yan'an Prefecture is lost, this crime is too big. Even if it is recaptured, alas, I should probably go home and farm. Now we really need a victory, otherwise, my life will almost be handed down.

Here we are. It is a grave sin of losing our land. I cannot escape the blame. It is not a pity for me to die, but I have really betrayed the divine grace. Even if I violate the laws of the country, I will not be able to close my eyes!" As he spoke, he burst into tears.

It overflowed from his eyes, fell down his sparse white beard, and dripped onto the back of Li Shaobing's hand.

Li Shaobing, who was well aware of the old man's temperament, was moved. After hesitating for a moment, he let go of Yu Shengliang's sleeves, solemnly bowed with his fists clasped, and said to Shengliang: "Sir, I understand. I understand.

You should do your best and risk your life to repay the kindness of the adults! However, adults and villains only have some brute strength. They can block three or five knives for adults. The villains dare to pat their chests, but they fight in formation.

The villain has only been the chief flag officer, and does not even fully understand the orders of the golden drum flag. The thieves are numerous and the city is in danger. It is absolutely impossible for this group of death row prisoners to recapture the city alone. However, if the villain thinks about it, then

The thieves always send small teams to search for food and property in the countryside. I will pick some smart ones and take advantage of the chaos to steal and kill some lone thieves. In ten days, I can always bring back some heads for the adults. Sir, do you think you can do it?"

Yu Shengliang said with emotion: "Very good, very good! I am counting on you! But, Shaobing, you must be careful, no matter what, if you come back - I am counting on you!"

Knowledge points in this article:

1. It is true that many people in ancient times did not know left and right - don't laugh at them, they could quickly and accurately distinguish southeast, northwest, which was better than many modern people.

2. Parade-style infantry square formations, especially split formations, left and right turns and other fancy formation changes during marching, all originated from ancient actual combat needs.

3. Most civilians in ancient times suffered from night blindness because of the lack of meat food - retinone is a fat-soluble A vitamin, which cannot be absorbed by the human body without enough fat as a carrier.
